Abstract excerpt
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common cancer in South China but is rare in other parts of the world. To better understand the molecular basis of this cancer, we performed high-resolution allelotyping on 27 microdissected primary tumors using 382 microsatellite markers. We have detected high frequencies of allelic imbalance on 3p (96.3%), 9p (85.2%), 9q (88.9%), 11q (74.1%), 12q (70.4%), 13q (55.6%), 14q...
